Bringing the woman's expression into the light with the dodge brush makes this one for me.

Nicely done, this lends itself well to b&w.

Thanks all. The woman was in deep shadow and I dodged her in as much as possible. I considered other crops but I was enjoying the pricetags on the shapely mannequins which seem a timely reminder of the NY State governor's current problem. (For you out-of-towners, our new governor known as a squeeky clean law-and-order prosecutor has been found to be spending tens of thousands of state funds on a high class hooker. He has now resigned.) The woman's face expresses the public reaction. -tv

Wonderful Tommy, my eye followed the line of tags right up to the woman's face.

I agree about wanting a bit more light on the woman's face, right now we tend to stare at the white shirt and.....! Did you think about cropping the bottom of the picy up to the bottom of the belt? I think it might direct the eye more toward the woman, maybe even crop the sleeve off the shirt? Just thinking out loud here! :-D CJ

Great picy for us blokes wiv bums & ...&.. well you know ....thingys:-) I really like how the line of inanimate models ends wiv a live person. It's just a shame the same light wasn't on her to make her a bit more noticeable. Well seen Tommy mate:-)
